Oatmeal Cookies with nuts and berries

My husband loves my oatmeal cookies. He can eat them
by the dozen. A few weeks ago my Mom was visiting and she loved them too; ate
over a dozen in 4 days. This was the first time I though the future may hold
some tension between the two. The battle of the “Oatmeal Cookie”.

Though truly they are great as a snack or for
breakfast with milk, they’re filled with all the healthy goodness of oats and
dry fruit. You can pretty much use any dry fruit you like: walnuts, raisin,
cranberries, almonds, hazelnuts, cashews, I sometimes throw in some chocolate
chips try dark or milk.

Once I made the batter ahead of time and left it in the
refrigerator. Popped them in the oven and voila freshly baked cookies in 15 minutes.
